Harold lived a happy life with his family, which constituted the daughter Samantha and his mother. The mother later fell ill and passed away, leaving Harold in full care of their daughter. Samantha becomes a waitress at the dining hall that was run by her stepmother Fiona. Her stepmother Fiona is heartless and greedy but eventually acquired full ownership of the premise after Samantha’s father’s death. He married Fiona immediately after the death of her husband. Harold Samantha’s father died, leaving behind no will. Fiona greedily took everything for herself, leaving Samantha to toil for her upkeep and manage her school fee; her stepmother Fiona and her stepsister twins Brianna and Gabriella torments her to their satisfaction, forcing her to work for them for long periods without any pay and food.
Fiona took Samantha’s earnings and spent it on luxurious things instead of basic needs like water, food, and clothing required at home. Samantha tried all that she could to join High School; she was bullied and tormented by some staff, but some of them welcomed her to the institution with open arms showing her all the adoration and love she required as a teenager. She confides in her pen pal friend Austin who had the same interests of joining the college as Samantha’s to become a writer. Some friends never turned their backs on her, and these friends of her include Carter Farrell, Rhonda, and many employees that her father had employed to help handle tasks at the dining hall. Samantha, together with Nomad, had planned to meet at the festival which was to be held at the school hall; Samantha appeared at the party dressed up in a white gown and mask. They danced together, and later, Samantha learns that Nomad is Austin, but Austin didn’t get the opportunity of knowing her. Samantha resumed back to the dinner to continue with her shift. Samantha left without revealing her true identity to Nomad, not knowing that they had been named the principal’s homecoming princess and prince.
Samantha dropped her phone on her way out of the hall, but Austin luckily picked it. Brianna and her sister Gabriella discovered that their stepsister Samantha was Cinderella and eventually tried luring Austin that they are Cinderella. Brianna and Drisella then presented the emails that were for Samantha to Shelby. They went the extra mile of gathering some lies that Samantha wanted to steal Austin. Brianna, Shelby, and Gabriella performed a mean-spirited skit at a school pep rally, horrifying the school staff. The email was read to the public. This helped Austin in knowing Samantha’s true identity. Samantha became humiliated and disappointed as Austin left her to bear the shame without offering any support.
Samantha later becomes more frustrated with her stepmother for letting her work so hard and received no pay. She left working at the diner and moved to Rhonda’s place. Some staff, including Rhonda, resigned too from the job as they were only staying in the dinner hall in respect of Samantha after her father’s death. Customers stormed out after learning all that had been taking place. Samantha confronted Austin before the football was over to let him know that she was not pleased with the lies and cowardice he showed. Austin then apologizes to her, she accepts the apology, and they both kissed for the first time. Samantha later found her father’s will hidden. The will indicated that Mr. Harold’s wealth and house were meant to be left for her daughter Samantha, including the dinner place. She then sells her stepmother’s possession to pay for her dream college.
Her stepmother Fiona, had signed the will as a witness but later on claimed not to be knowing anything about the will left by Hals, was arrested for child abuse and exploiting Samantha, forcing her out of her lawful inheritance, letting her work for long hours without any pay at that minor age. Her stepsisters Gabriella and Brianna retrieved her real acceptance letter to the college of her dream from the garbage where their mother Fiona had dumped it. Samantha’s stepmother and her unpleasant kids were then forced to work at the dinner in compensation for all the wrong things they did to Samantha after her father’s death. Samantha and Rhonda fully managed the dinner hall, making it to be more pleasant as customers stormed in in large numbers.
Additionally, Andy accepted his son to join Princeton and created a promotion at his carwash. Shelby and carter become friends for a while, but they parted when carter realizes her true colors. Samantha and Austin began a relationship after Austin had returned her cell phone, which he picked at the Halloween party. They then happily drove to Princeton together, a college each had been willing to join.
